Endometriosis is a condition in which the endometrium, the tissue that lines the uterus, grows in other parts of the body. For some, endometriosis can cause terrible pain.

Could I Be Pregnant?
Usually, one doesn’t want to experience “symptoms”—except when it’s pregnancy symptoms. If you have been trying to conceive for a while, you’re hoping to feel nauseated and fatigued!

You really have to wait until your period is at least one day late and take a pregnancy test. That said, there are symptoms associated with pregnancy.

A Word From Verywell
As mentioned above, these articles can’t diagnose or rule out any medical problem, and they should only be used for educational purposes. However, they can help you help your doctor. Jot down notes on symptoms or questions that raise concerns. You may not have realized, for example, that abnormal hair growth can be a symptom of PCOS. Your doctor may not know you have this problem if you wax or pluck away the evidence. As always, if you’re concerned about your health please make an appointment to see your doctor.
